Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 512

Remington didn't glance back, his voice low and icy.

"Liz, if you've truly moved on, don't plan on looking back, then be as cold as you can towards me."

With those words, he pulled open the door and strode out.

Lizetta, "..."

What a jerk, she thought. If she gives him any more attention, she might as well be a fool!

Let him be overwhelmed, for all she cared!

Once Remington was outside, Ray approached him and said, "Mr. Remington Dashiell, Ralap has fled."

Ralap had brought people over, but cleverly, Ralap didn't show up himself tonight.

Ray, not having spotted Ralap, had immediately ordered the men stationed outside to capture him, but somehow Ralap still managed to slip away.

Remington's brow furrowed deeply as he spoke in a cold voice.

"Double down on the search efforts. We need to find him alive!"

Catching the culprit was crucial, as Ralap was Barbara Daisynes West's nephew and the operative this time.

If he got away, the evidence would be insufficient, and many details would remain unclear.

Hearing Remington's tone, Ray felt a surge of alarm.

"Is Mr. Remington Dashiell worried that the West family will find out and attempt to silence the matter?"

Remington massaged his temples, weary, and simply said, "Go."

To Remington, the Wests had always felt like family.

He had never doubted the Wests' integrity, carrying a heavy guilt towards the West family. He saw the Wests as kind, generous, and forgiving.

After the incident with Stella, Martin, Barbara, and Quentin never blamed him.

They all silently endured the hardships, showing tolerance and kindness.

Mom, he must have gone abroad, searching for that woman! Could it be that cousin was targeted the moment he left?"

Stella had believed Remington's sudden announcement of a business trip.

For the past few days, her attempts to contact Remington had received normal responses.

Stella hadn't been suspicious, but with Remington's prolonged absence, she grew restless and traveled from Zion City to Oakmont yesterday.

She wanted to surprise Remington, only to discover he wasn't in Oakmont at all.

Stella was in total panic, and hearing this, Barbara's heart sank, her face darkening.

"Mom, could something have happened to cousin? What do we do?"

Listening to her daughter's cries of despair, Barbara's gnarled fingers tightened around her phone, her expression turning vindictive.

"If he can't handle this simple task, he needn't bother returning!"
